I’m gonna need a helping hand
My candle burns at both ends
My body trades beginner’s luck
I can’t believe the time it took
Your story fades right into mine
If my heart breaks I guess it’s fine

I don’t sleep, I don’t mind
I’ve loved you such a long time
Another week, another night
I’ve loved you such a long time
Baby I’ve loved you such a long time

I’m gonna need your help old friend
I’m gonna keep the words you send
I’ll take those odds and hold them close
Cos where we meet no one knows
The hurting fades along the line
I know it takes a little time

I don’t sleep, I don’t mind
I’ve loved you such a long time
Another week, another night
I’ve loved you such a long time
Baby I’ve loved you such a long time

I don’t sleep, I don’t mind
I’ve loved you such a long time
Another year passes by
I’ve loved you such a long time
Baby I’ve loved you such a long time
I’ve loved you such a long time
Baby I’ve loved you such a long time
